| Iraqi Security Forces Conduct Large-Scale Operations Against ISIS in Border Areas |
| 2023-03-19 |
Iraqi security forces and the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) conducted large-scale operations on Saturday in border areas between Saladin and the Kurdistan Region. In contrast, the Peshmerga forces formed a "blocking line" to track down ISIS members. The operations aimed to track down and apprehend ISIS members carrying out attacks in the region, particularly in the northern and western parts of Iraq. According to Atef al-Najjar, assistant commander of the PMF's 52nd Brigade, the operations destroyed ten ISIS guesthouses and confiscated various equipment, ammunition, and weapons. In addition, military engineering units also removed several bombs planted by ISIS. The operations were launched in retaliation for the recent kidnapping and killing of a shepherd who was a security forces member. Meanwhile, ...back at the dirigible, the gondola was dangling by a single thread of rope. Jack!Cynthia cried. I just realized I'm afraid of heights! I don't even like high heels!... Col. Hakim Karim Saati, commander of the 17th Brigade in the Peshmerga, announced the formation of a blocking line through patrols to track down fleeing ISIS members. At the end of the security operations, no cases of infiltration or penetration of the blocking lines were recorded. |
